Trump approval ratings thread, 1.4

[Comrade Funk]

Independent approval rating was 44/42 in July. That's a dramatic drop in support.

[Comrade Funk]

There was a CNN poll in December 2017 that had Democrats up in the GCB by 18-19 points. Trump had a big surge after the tax scam was signed. Before that his plutocratic base was enraged by the failure of health care reform and the fact that Trump had zero accomplishments. The tax scam gave him a boost among his 1% base.

December was especially bad because of the Roy Moore debacle. Defending and endorsing a racist pedophile was a bad look...

Fox News poll (so take it with huge rain of salt)

47 (+3)
51 (-1)

I believe it. Never underestimate the stupidity of America.

[Comrade Funk]

Wait, wouldn’t America be the opposite of stupid if a majority (51%) disapprove of him??

51% disapproval is not something we should be bragging about. It's embarrassing it's that low.

[Comrade Funk]

Bet you his utter subservient ass kissing of Saudi Arabia ain't helping.

Ohio (favorability): PPP, Nov. 27-28, 648 RV

Some 2020 matchups:

Brown 48, Trump 42
Biden 48, Trump 44
Sanders 47, Trump 46
Trump 49, Warren 43

holy sexism

No. Tell me that when they poll Klobuchar or Harris.

Ivanka Trump 39/45
Jared Kushner 24/44

America's couple

Gallup weekly:

Approve 40 (+2)
Disapprove 55 (-2)

Christmas bump?

Ras has him at 46 this week (they usually have him at 50), which is like 35 once you realize it's Ras.

A state that could well matter in 2020, one that Trump really must win.

Florida, Mason-Dixon: 47-50 approval vs. disapproval.

Re-elect 45%. Replace 46%. Not sure 9%.

Trump approval:

With cumulative electoral vote totals in each category.

55% and higher
50-54%
49% or less and positive
tie (white)
44-49% and negative 80
40-43% 13
under 40%  43

An asterisk will be applied to any state in which the President's approval rating is above 43% for which the disapproval rating is 50% or higher.

No segregation of districts in Maine and Nebraska -- yet.

40 more states, and 409 electoral votes to go!

Considering the number of individuals who will vote for Trump despite "disapproving" of him, those numbers would probably be sufficient for him to narrowly carry the state again.

Florida gonna Florida

[Comrade Funk]

And that should shut everyone up

[Comrade Funk]

WTF is happening? Why is Trump gaining?

You're basing that question off a poll touted by propaganda-in-chief with no citation?

If you've been living in this country for more than a few years, you should be used to the utter stupidity of the American public.

So Rasmussen has Trump at +8 points today at 53/45. They also put this opinion piece on their website.

So, I ask again, why do RCP and 538 continue to include them in their aggregates? They're terrible performance in 2018 along with huge outliers this last week are proof they've dropped any pretext of being an actual pollster.

RCP is the same website that thought Bush would win California
